That's brilliant Bonnie! I'm so happy that life worked out for you and Clyde. Don't you shudder to think how bad it could have been?!

He never said "I tell you the truth today"

Becuzzz if he did then it would logically imply that there had been occasions in the past when he did NOT tell the truth. As in "Well sure I've lied before but TODAY, right now, I'm telling the truth."

If you want to get some ugly Elder glances start working that into your conversations. I use it every chance I get because it sounds so absurd yet they want you to believe that Jesus had to preface and punctuate his words in that manner?

It was the U.N. and child abuse issues that got me on the net! I'm so glad there were sites like this for research!!!

Isn't there a comma issue when Jesus is on the cross and he said to the one guy that he would be in paradise with him. I thought there was a debate about WHEN he would be in paradise based on some comma placement.

For me it was being df'd for questioning our PO's illegal business practices. Then the gloves were off.

30 years of $hitting on the watchliar sociopath society at every chance I get.

The paedophile issue worried me. Soon after I typed in undeserved kindness on the internet. That was an eye opener.

my first looks at apostates sites were not an eye opener. they just talked about nonsense things and about hateful lies. it was like "exactly" what the bible has warned of.

but i thought i cant judge all critics by a handful from a certain site. so i found honest and insight critics which were like my own thoughts. i think there are people who are so far from the JW away that a JW wouldnt believe anything because it sounds so strange to him.

for me the only way to see something is wrong was people who were like me. people who are still close to the jw but discusses doctrines instead of saying yes to them.

It 1997 when I first looked on the internet. I had read a book called "Awake to the Watchtower" in the local library.

I thought I would check out what it was saying on the internet as it was available in the library. Up came about a million links.

First one I looked at was Freeminds, and is still the first one I recommend to people doing research on the JW's.

For the next 2-3 years I used the internet and books to recheck everything I was learning about the WT.

In August 1999 at a Service Meeting listen to the same old stuff. I suddenly realised I no longer believed it.

That was my last meeting.

I got on the internet to look for a KM. I bumped into H20 and started reading. I told myself that if I REALLY had the truth, it could stand up to the apostates and their "faulty" reasoning. Never made it to that meeting.
